Hello all of you lovely Aeclectic Tarot regulars...I have been diving in here for meanings, info and deciphering those darned cards for quite some time, and finally decided to join. I am 50 and have been reading the cards since I was 12. I was self-taught, so it's been a long, slow climb...what annoys me about cards is I can give very clear readings to others, but not so to myself.
How is it that one can be clairvoyant, clairaudient, able to read rings, auras, bottle caps, cards, the secret meaning of squirrel tracks, find omens in clouds or cat hair, be vaunted as a wise auntie, and sought by others - and still not be able to decipher one's own messes...? Lack of objectivity, I suppose...but I do find it perverse of my inner guide to honour all beings except moi! lol...
So, because learning never ceases, I have joined the forum. Thank you so much for having me here.
oh yes - and, I am an artist, free-thinker, and lover of animals...and have an assortment of tarot and oracle decks. :)

Hi Lotus Padma and welcome to AT :) Nice to have you here. And -cough- I don't think you are old because I'm older !:P

Thanks, Hemera :) One thing I have for sure learned about growing old - I no longer know what the word "adult" really means ;) hahaha! It's all a state of mind, I suppose...

Hi Lotus Padma, I loved your "new but old"...I feel young here (i'm 40!) how refreshing to have old and young altogether! Good luck and I'm sure we can all learn something from each other!

Welcome Lotus, I think it is quite common to have difficulty exercising an 'outside' perspective on your own messes. You have 38 yrs tarot experience -- looking forward to your words of wisdom!
